Danzo: I'm Going to Build a New Konoha!

"You have backup?"

Aburame Tatsuma raised his hand, Chakra surged, transforming into a cocoon.

Immediately, insects hatched from within, and a cloud of insects spread outwards.

But soon...

The insects found a target.

This person is...

"So it was him!"

Aburame Tatsuma understands.

Chakra, it should be that kid Kyohiko Yoshimine!

Unexpectedly, the Third Generation actually asked him to come with Shibi Aburame; no wonder the Root's subordinates were thrown into chaos.

but.

An eight-year-old child broke into the Root's base...

"They're all useless!"

Aburame Tatsuma's expression turned cold.

Although the people at the base have received meticulous training, most of them are still just ordinary people, lacking special techniques and abilities. Compared to others...

Those two, A and B, were already elites.

However.

Those two didn't hold out for long either.

"Now it's your turn."

Shibi Aburame. "As a member of our tribe, come back with me, and I might spare your life!"

"For Danzo!"

Without hesitation, Aburame Tatsuma raised his head and shouted, his Chakra erupting, and the Kikaichū rapidly multiplied, transforming into a sky full of dark clouds that enveloped Kyohiko.

He wasn't afraid of insects, but he was even more wary of Kyohiko.

However.

The next instant, a deafening roar.

In the distance, a water dragon rose from Kyohiko's body and, guided and controlled by Kyohiko's arm, transformed into a spinning column of water rushing towards him.

Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!

Like Water Dragon Bullet with Passing Fang, it drew a beautiful arc in the air.

Just from the sheer power...

Aburame Tatsuma could sense that the Ninjutsu before him contained powerful Chakra, and being hit by it would definitely be fatal.

We can't stop them!

He tried to avoid it, but behind him, a swarm of insects belonging to Shibi Aburame gathered at one point, directly breaking through the rotating wall formed by the insects and creating a thin zone.

Not good!

Aburame Tatsuma immediately understood what the other party was thinking.

This vulnerable area will soon be filled by other insects if nothing unexpected happens, but there is also a threat on the other side.

He immediately manipulated the insect to stop spinning, protecting it from the Water Dragon Bullet on the other side, while he quickly shifted his position, intending to escape the area.

But.

The next moment, the insect reported that a figure was rapidly approaching!

Extremely fast.

No, no!

What the insect senses is actually its previous location...

Aburame Tatsuma immediately manipulated the insects, attempting to create Insect Clone.

But in an instant.

He felt that the worms inside his body were somewhat out of control.

This is?

Before Shibi Aburame...

Wasn't it just to create an opportunity for Kyohiko?

Aburame Tatsuma was incredulous and could only escape using his Taijutsu, but at that moment, a high-pitched roar came from above.

He looked up.

I only saw --

Ahead, Kyohiko, holding the dragon head, forcefully changed the direction of the Water Dragon Bullet, drawing a semi-circle in the air and charging in through the weak point of his Insect Wall Technique.

In that instant, he seemed to hear the roar of a dragon.

High-pitched and terrifying.

Boom!

The spinning dragon head pounded into his abdomen like a drill, propelling him out of the insect wall.

The Kikaichū can't keep up!

In mid-air, before he could recover, he heard a gust of wind howling.

A person appeared from behind.

On the ground, Shibi Aburame was completely stunned.

He felt...

I was just there for show, playing a supporting role.

If you create an opportunity for Kyohiko, the opponent can seize it instantly and deliver a fatal blow.

Just like now.

After releasing the Water Dragon Bullet, Kyohiko left Shadow Clone in place, while his real body Body Flicker Technique to the dragon's head, using his hand to maintain and control it, replacing the Shadow Clone...

Thus, the unconventional Water Dragon Bullet was successfully launched.

These Water Dragon Bullet are stronger, faster, and can even change direction, making them impossible to defend against. Even if he were to suddenly attack, he simply couldn't block them.

At this moment, Aburame Tatsuma had already devoured the Kikaichū that Shibi Aburame had invaded his body.

His body was covered with Kikaichū.

but.

In an instant, Kyohiko punched him.

The Strength Enhancement Technique clashed directly.

Even the Kikaichū couldn't devour the sudden burst of Chakra at this moment. Aburame Tatsuma streaked across the sky like a meteor and fell in front of Shibi Aburame.

Immediately, Kyohiko Body Flicker Technique beside Shibi Aburame.

"Help!"

"Um."

Without further ado, Shibi Aburame manipulated the insects into Kyohiko's body, quickly devouring the Kikaichū that had invaded his body.

In no time, the insects were completely wiped out.

If they are not eliminated immediately, they will absorb the host 'Chakra to reproduce and eventually burst out of the body.

The terrifying thing about the Kikaichū of the Aburame Clan is that they are parasitic.

Kyohiko let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much, Senior Shibi."

"Not at all, I'm the one who should thank you. If it weren't for you..."

Shibi Aburame looked at Aburame Tatsuma lying motionless on the ground and sighed silently.

This guy is also a genius from the Aburame Clan.

Unfortunately, he followed Danzo and is now a fanatical follower of Danzo, making communication impossible.

"Aburame Tatsuma, oh!"

"If we try to rescue them now, it might still be in time, but we have to be quick. If we're too slow, the people behind will catch up."

Kyohiko forced a smile and said.

Shibi Aburame hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's take them with us first, then we'll go."

"What a coincidence, there are two people on my side too, and I can't move for the time being."

Kyohiko stood still.

At that moment, the Shadow Clone dragged the two of them slowly approaching from a distance.

One hand is the future Yakushi Nonō.

The other hand is the future Yamato.

Shibi Aburame somewhat surprised. "You still kept her? I thought you killed her."

"I feel like we might be able to salvage the situation. After all, the vast majority of people stay in Root because they have no other choice. If they had a choice, they probably wouldn't want to stay in Root either."

Kyohiko said.

Then he frowned.

"The only problem is the Curse Mark Danzo left on them..."

The Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal.

Although they can't reveal Danzo's secrets, there might be other tricks up their sleeves, and as long as the Curse Mark remains, they will never forget the psychological shock Danzo caused.

Shibi Aburame secretly observed Kyohiko.

This child has experienced many hardships.

Despite losing family members at a young age and having the scrolls in her home taken away by others, leaving only a few, she has maintained her kind heart even now.

That's truly rare!

and.

He almost thought the Water Style he just witnessed was the Second Hokage reappearing; that soaring water dragon had been praised in the legends of their childhood.

But now...

Shibi Aburame was already lost in thought.

"Senior Shibi?"

"Huh? Oh, then, I'll seal him away first."

Shibi Aburame took out a scroll, then formed a hand Hand Seals. After a few seconds, gourd-like objects appeared on the scroll, and then he opened the gourds...

On the scroll, the spell was laid out, the black spell patterns spreading outwards from the Aburame Tatsuma lying on the ground, and finally converging on the gourd.

Before long, insects flew out of the Aburame Tatsuma and entered the gourd.

Is this a technique to seal away the insects?

It's rather novel.

However, it should only be able to seal insects that have lost the control of their host; otherwise, it would have been taken out earlier.

After some preparation, all the insects were sealed away.

"Can this technique only control uncontrollable insects?"

"Yes, it's actually a sealing device we use to seal our own insects. It's rarely used to seal other people's insects, since the Aburame Clan are all on our side..."

Shibi Aburame.

He never imagined that one day he would have to turn against his own people.

Kyohiko gave it a try.

Now that he can move around a little, and his clone has arrived, he can help communicate with the Toad.

He handed it over, then bit his finger.

Afterwards, his Shadow Clone Hand Seals seals to summon the spirit, while he chatted idly with Shibi Aburame.

He didn't want to get too involved with the Aburame Clan.

The Aburame Clan's secret techniques are independent of others; their core is raising insects and symbiosis. While they might require some strategy in combat, they don't involve much skill.

Currently, he hasn't figured out how to profit from the Aburame Clan.

so.

For now, it's best for us to maintain a comrade-in-arms relationship.

Because he didn't have much Chakra, Kyohiko could only summon Iron-Arm Toad, which held Yamato while Kyohiko carried Yakushi Nonō, which could be considered as training with a heavy load.

"Let's go, or they'll catch up."

"Um."

Inside the Anbu base in Konoha, Danzo followed Hiruzen Sarutobi through the tunnels into the innermost research lab.

Jiraiya and Tsunade are both here.

"How about it?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked.

"It's a very peculiar physique, but this power is extremely uncontrollable, almost impossible for us to control, and the cost of transplanting his flesh and blood is terrifying."

As he spoke, Tsunade to the side.

Beside it, a bizarre creature was howling madly. Hiruzen Sarutobi it closely and realized that it looked like a pig, but now it had become horribly deformed, with flesh and blood growing out of it and no sense of reason, making it almost unrecognizable.

"Ninja transplantation should offer a chance to control it."

Danzo said.

Tsunade immediately gave him a cold look. "Danzo- senpai, do you mean to use our hard-earned ninjas as test subjects, to let them try to control this power?"

"This is the necessary price!"

Danzo blocked the railway.

Tsunade chuckled and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Teacher, you often say that the village needs necessary darkness. Did you mean to attack the villagers?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi silent.

He didn't know how to answer, but he was probably cursing Danzo in his heart.

"It doesn't necessarily have to be one of our own; it could be a ninja from another country."

Danzo continued.

Jiraiya laughed.

"The disappearance of ninjas will inevitably lead to an investigation into their origins, which will then result in a war. Danzo -senpai, is this also part of your plan?"

"You simply don't understand. If you have enough power, you don't need to be beholden to others."

Danzo's will was unwavering.

In his view, only his own people are trustworthy, and the current peace is merely a result of forbearance and compromise before he was strong enough.

However.

After he finished speaking, Tsunade and Jiraiya fell silent.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression remained indifferent.

"If he becomes a ninja, is it possible for him to control it? For example, reduce the time he goes berserk, or prevent himself from going berserk when using a portion of his power?"

"That's possible."

Tsunade skillfully changed the subject.

She explained the results of helping Kurokawa refine and control his Chakra over the past two or three days, Jiraiya similarly explained the principles of Sage Chakra.

As Professor of Ninjutsu, how could Hiruzen Sarutobi not understand?

He nodded.

In other words, Kyohiko's suggestion is feasible: let Kurokawa train and become stronger so that one day he can control this power and become one of Konoha's forces.

even--

If Kurokawa settles down Konoha, he might just become a clan.

However, Konoha already has the Uchiha; if another clan as uncontrollable as Libra were to appear, it would likely cause even more headaches.

Hiruzen Sarutobi rubbed his temples.

"He's abandoned the research, but he'll remain in the Anbu for now, under the care of the Sealing Team. They'll teach him Chakra refinement and control. Jiraiya, I'll need your help with this..."

"No problem."

Jiraiya nodded.

He disagreed with the Old Man on political issues, but he would never stop working or deliberately cause trouble because of that.

not to mention.

The bomb was brought by his own disciple.

Danzo's face darkened.

He understood that Hiruzen Sarutobi had no intention of letting him take over; he had simply brought him here to see what the so-called "Sage Body" was really like.

He was furious, but he couldn't vent his anger directly.

Today, the Anbu still has his men, but it's no longer his domain. His influence has been reduced to almost nothing, leaving only a few departments such as training and interrogation.

"Danzo, let's go."

Hiruzen Sarutobi turned and left.

Danzo followed, saying nothing more, but silently keeping up.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Danzo, your thinking is too extreme. What we need now is stability and peace; we can't afford to create any more trouble."

"War will resume sooner or later."

Danzo coldly replied, "If we don't hurry up and become stronger now, are we going to wait until war breaks out?"

"I want to become stronger, but not in this way."

The debate Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He seemed intent on having a heart-to-heart talk with Danzo, trying to make Danzo understand his good intentions, but for some reason, Danzo sensed something was amiss.

The previous Hiruzen Sarutobi would never have told him so much, much less shown him so many secrets. His current actions give the impression that he is deliberately trying to keep him here.

Danzo frowned.

Then, his gaze suddenly turned serious.

Could it be...?

He stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said, "Hiruzen, did you send someone to my side?"

"Over there?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression turned serious as he stared at him. "You have your own base? I didn't even know that, Danzo... You used the Training Department as an excuse to set up an organization on your own?"

Danzo realized he had spoken out of turn and immediately fell silent.

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's sharp gaze, he retorted, "I'm doing this for Konoha. Our own people shouldn't be in enemy territory. If they're dug up, they'll find a reason to demand compensation. But unregistered ninjas don't have this problem."

"You can also target your own people, right?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi sneered.

Then he stopped, staring coldly at Danzo: "How many things are you still hiding from me?"

"Don't you already know? Yes, I did establish Root, but it was all for the sake of Konoha. Now Root is spread across various countries, allowing us to obtain all sorts of intelligence..."

Danzo spoke of his own role and the function of the root.

His gaze softened. "Hiruzen, we may have different opinions, but we're all doing this for Konoha."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone softened as well.

The two walked and talked, and it seemed they were going to talk until dawn.

However.

While Danzo was being chatted with by Hiruzen Sarutobi, his base had already been breached by Kyohiko, and even his trusted subordinates had been captured alive. Three important figures were taken captive and brought back to Konoha from Qianlin Temple.

When he found out...

It was already the second day.

The morning was sunny, but Danzo's mood wasn't so pleasant.

That night, he thought he had managed to keep Hiruzen Sarutobi under control.

result.

In the end, Hiruzen Sarutobi had already sent men to capture his subordinates.

The idiot was himself!

"Danzo, stop fighting. You're no match for Hiruzen. Hand over the Root members; they should be under Konoha's unified command."

Mitokado Homura advised in a low voice.

Utatane Koharu also said, "Root is indeed necessary, but your recent actions have indeed angered Hiruzen. Once his anger subsides, we will help you persuade him, and you will still be in your previous position..."

"Snort!"

Danzo up and left angrily.

He understood.

Even Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu disagreed with his actions, believing him to be too radical, disregarding human life, and even wanting to control the "Root" he had founded.

That's something he built from scratch, how could he let it go?

At worst...

I will recreate Root, Anbu, and even recreate Konoha!

He turned and left.
